Croats like to call themselves Antemurale Christianitatis, but in fact they are Islamophilic society.
Islamophilia dates from Ante Starčević, father of Croatian nationalism. He considered Bosnian Muslims as purest part of Croatian nation.
When Croats finaly got their independent state - Hitler gave it to them in 1941, they build big mosque in centre of Zagreb.

When Croats got their independence again in 1991. building new big modern mosques all across Croatia started.
